Today, the base mountain territory has officially become a powerful party, and there is no need to worry about the attack of other forces around it, and the surrounding forces, whether it is the southern elves or the eastern orcs, are unlikely to bring a deadly threat to the base mountain territory.

To a certain extent, Base Mountain is indeed already a strong man, a strong man who dominates one side.

But despite this, Zhang Quan could not relax, because he knew that his danger would not only come from this world, but even possibly, from his rear.

……

Earth, Xiangjiang.

This city is a very distinctive city, because the land area is limited and the population is overcrowded, and the people of Xiangjiang have to find a way to ask the sky for living space.

One after another, floors tens of meters or hundreds of meters high rose from the ground, standing tall in mid-air, like steel giants growing in the city. In order to make it easier for residents living on these high-rise buildings, there are also sky corridors connecting these floors, and there are even large supermarkets, shopping malls, restaurants and cinemas on the halfway floors.

The residents of the high-rise buildings can enjoy almost all of the modern life just between these floors without even going to the ground for several months, and it can really be described as a city living in mid-air.

Walking between the high-rise buildings, feeling the fast-paced modern life of these people, each of them is in a hurry, as if they are under a lot of pressure, so that Zhang Quan always has a somewhat illusory feeling, these people who have lived in mid-air almost all their lives, what is the purpose of the fast-paced life every day.

If it was placed in the past, as one of these people, Zhang Quan would not be able to afford this kind of research mind anyway, but as a superior for a long time, he always looked at the orcs under him with an inquiring eye, and unconsciously, he was infected with such a habit.

Li He beside him asked him,

"Well, let's get used to it when we come back! Look at the way you are very touched. ”

Zhang Quan is a wake-up call,

"It's okay, it's okay! It's just that I haven't been in the city for a long time, and I haven't seen such a big world! Haha, some countrymen! Brothers, don't despise me! ”

Er Shao snorted and said,

"Hey! I said Izumiko! You're not kind, and you can't joke on your brothers! Who dares to say that you are a hillbilly, if you are a hillbilly, wouldn't all of us have become hillbillies? ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help frowning, and felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts, this guy always speaks like this, this is the truth, you can't say this! Scold! Look at what you said, these people of the Xiangjiang Gaia Group are all raised by Zhang Quan, where do you let these people's faces go.

Regardless of the unpleasant words, but the words are not rough, the entire group of the Gaia Group is really raised by Zhang Quan alone.

Multinational groups say it's easy, but it's really hard to maintain it.

The modern global economic situation is not good, the global trade volume is shrinking, the main business of the Gaia Group, that is, the profit of trade, is not very good, and it can't support the field at all.

In March 2017, Zhang Quan purchased a total of 200 million yuan of scientific research instruments and materials.

In April 2017, Zhang Quan purchased cement and steel, also more than 200 million yuan.

In May 2017, in order to establish a computer network center for the Sugart Experimental Project in the other world, Zhang Quan also purchased a large number of computers and network equipment and office equipment, with a total price of more than 100 million yuan.

Zhang Quan's Gaia World purchases more than 100 million yuan of goods from the earth almost every month, although the goods are not much, but the profits left to the group's side are very high, and the budget is balanced, it also fills the deficit in other aspects, so that the Gaia Group can always maintain a market with a total scale of more than one billion yuan.

In this way, the trade volume of the entire Gaia Group is tens of billions, and it is already a large-scale trading group with a very good scale in Xiangjiang

Especially in today's trading environment with a depressed market.

It is through this that Gaia Group can always stand tall in the industry, and under the surprised eyes of its peers, it has slowly begun to expand and penetrate into the logistics area.

Trading companies, as the downstream of the market food chain, a large part of the profits are consumed in the logistics of this piece, if the logistics can be integrated, then in terms of cost and scale, Gaia Group can be said to officially enter the ranks of large trading groups.

This is also a similar group mainly engaged in trade, in the current new situation of the international industry is the only way to retreat. In the current world, online sales has become a major trend, although it is still facing different trade tariffs and various trade protection measures between various international and regional countries around the world, and it is still difficult to move.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the main form of trade in the future will inevitably become the form of online sales, automatic sales and global centralized logistics. In this new situation, the traditional trading companies will inevitably disappear, the core of the global trade chain will shift to the upstream of the industry, and the logistics operation will gradually be able to grasp the right to speak in the industry, which is almost an inevitable trend.

Therefore, once the Gaia Group has spare strength, it wants to try to get involved in this area, which is also the inevitability of survival. However, it is a pity that the integration of logistics is not an easy task in Xiangjiang.

Xiangjiang's logistics are mainly terminals, containers, which can be called the best assets in Xiangjiang, a small place that relies on trade import and export business to survive, and has always been in the hands of the most powerful people in the industry in Xiangjiang. Especially the top one among them, who is too big to be watched at this level of the Gaia Group.

As long as you have money, capital is guaranteed, and you are willing to pay rent to bear the business risk, whether it is COSCO or Heung Kong International, or even the port authority will not refuse this kind of business.

Li He and several of them are now thinking about developing this business.

This kind of thing is very important, and it can be regarded as the most critical step in the group's business expansion, so Zhang Quan has to come back to grasp the overall situation, otherwise if he is unwilling, then no one can hide it from him.

Zhang Quan and his entourage came to the No. 4 pier of the Xiangjiang International Container Terminal, which was the place where Li He and the others had negotiated with them.

"Oh, that's it, if it weren't for the old guy who wanted to transfer the business center in a hurry, I'm afraid we wouldn't have the qualifications to get this management right, it took a lot of effort for the boss to talk about it.

This is a real deep-water wharf, with a water depth of 14 meters, three berths, an area of 250,000 square meters, and a monthly throughput of nearly one million tons alone. Izumiko, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Fight a fight, you can get out of the position, in the future, our group will no longer have to worry about the shrinkage of trade volume, how about it? ”

Several brothers around him all looked at Zhang Quan with burning eyes, obviously everyone had already reached a consensus on this issue. Now he can only make the decision.

In fact, the words of the second little said, some are too inflammatory, the container terminal is not to reap the profits, it also has operational risks, and it is also to worry about the shrinkage of trade volume, but compared with the most direct trading company, the terminal operation is relatively separated by a layer, and the impact is not so direct. Of course Zhang Quan understands.

He thought about it, and didn't make a decision directly, but asked again,

"It's okay to get the wharf, but we can't have enough manpower, can we afford the wharf management, this thing is a very professional job, and it can't be done without talent."

Er Shaoyi laughed when he heard it,

"This ...... Yes! Ha ha! I said you're worried too much. Do you think it's still a few years ago? Now the world is full of layoffs, you want to say that it is difficult to find anything else, but two-legged people are everywhere, how many high-quality and highly educated talents are in a hurry to find a job in our Xiangjiang talent market? Where are you afraid that no one will do it! Needless to say, our brothers have already discussed, if the dock really comes over, we happen to be novices, and we can just go to the dock automatic logistics management system! This is the most popular new technology at the moment! It's guaranteed to be fast and good, and it's always ready to go. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Quan became interested and asked, "Then what do you say, what is going on with this automatic logistics management system?" ”

The second young replied,

"Isn't this now that technology is developed, and the degree of automation has also been strengthened, so those guys have also applied computer automatic management technology to terminal logistics management. Radio frequency identification technology, robotics technology, and a central computer system are used to automate the management of container handling.

It is said that the state-of-the-art management system is now fully automated for warehousing processing. The entire warehouse is handled by automatic robots, loading, unloading, and storing, and everything can be done, even to the extent that one person does not need to operate in it.

Although the current terminal has not been able to achieve full automation, the degree of automation is already very high, almost all processing processes can be included in the control of the computer, and the throughput efficiency of the terminal has been improved several times compared with before. ”

Er Shao has always been very enthusiastic about this new technology, but Li He is a little conservative here.

Li He listened to Ershao's statement, and was afraid that Zhang Quan would be bewitched by Ershao and affect his judgment, so he hurriedly rushed forward and explained two sentences.

"This ...... Izumiko! Although the automation management is good, the investment is also very large, and it also needs enough professionals to maintain, and the cost is not low. The reason why the brothers are considering this is because we have no business experience in this area, and we don't have our own talents, so we are short of manpower for a while, so we simply go directly to this, although the management requirements are higher, but we are newcomers, just recruit all the new people, and then let the headhunting company dig some executives, start anew, and directly catch up with the latest trend of the times.

In the long run, this automated logistics is also an inevitable trend. Although the brothers will not, they are all willing to start from scratch, in short, they will never disgrace you! ”

Zhang Quan heard this, his heart felt something, and looked back at these brothers, everyone's faces were really full of hope, it seems that these days, not only has he made progress in the Gaia world, but the brothers have also improved a lot in the hard fight in the dragon pool of Xiangjiang these days.

The Gaia Group, a company established on a whim, has become a ship of hope for his brothers, carrying the ideals of everyone. Unconsciously, this group of former friends has grown up and become warriors who set sail and dare to fight on the cusp of the times!
